Morphology
dick + munch
Knowing 'dick' (a vulgar term for penis or insult) and 'munch' (to chew/eat) does not allow a B1 learner to derive the target insult meaning; the phrase's sense is slangy, sexualized, and not a predictable composition of the constituents. This is an idiomatic, culturally specific vulgar insult whose meaning must be learned from exposure rather than inferred, so it is opaque.
Etymology
Dick munch may come from a rude image: dick is a rude word for a person and munch means to chew, so the phrase creates a nasty picture. One popular idea says that nasty picture was used to show someone is useless or annoying, which is why it now means 'a foolish or contemptible person'.
